<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rmpsrpms, post: 2664088, member: 31773&quot;]I will try to find some time today or in next couple days to put together comparison systems showing:</p><p>- Nikon camera with 105VR </p><p>- Nikon camera with extensions/helicoid/enlarging lens (the system I recommended to Pat)</p><p>- Canon camera with bellows and duplication lens (Similar to the system Robec uses)</p><p><br /></p><p>While spurred on to doing this by benveniste, I think it will be good for Pat to see the different options, and will hopefully help others that are looking on at this thread. </p><p><br /></p><p>My subject will be a Lincoln Cent, since that&#039;s what I collect, so the magnification won&#039;t be quite 1:1, maybe more like 0.75:1. </p><p><br /></p><p>There are a couple items I want to address first though:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>You seem to have misunderstood 100% of what I said.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Please let me know where I said this? You seem to be reading in a lot more to my messages than what I am typing. The Pentax bellows I use do indeed have a movable tripod mount. It looks and works a lot like a miniature Nikon PB6.

Note I am also working with APS-C, as are most of the folks on the various forums, so a Dime requires &lt;1:1 magnification to fill the screen. </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I would call this passage &quot;trolling&quot; but I am trying to keep an open mind and move this thread forward for the benefit of Pat and others.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
